Rebirth in 1985
Chapter 1040: Prelude to a Fatal Attack
Chapter 1040: Prelude to a fatal attack
As time entered February 2008, the outbreak of the financial crisis was getting closer and closer, and Lu Shaohua became increasingly busy. However, there was one thing that Lu Shaohua paid special attention to, and that thing was not about the financial crisis, but the Morgan Consortium.
After several days of planning, Lu Shaohua finally came up with a complete plan. After the plan was formulated, Lu Shaohua began to make arrangements. First, Lu Shaohua came to the Phoenix Building where Phoenix Finance was located and summoned Lin Yi.
Lin Yi is now the head of Phoenix Financial. Last year, Lu Shaohua met him once and asked him to familiarize himself with the situation of the Morgan Consortium. He told him that there was action to be taken and the time was ripe. Naturally, Lu Shaohua had to notify Lin Yi to prepare for battle.
"Do you remember what I told you last year? There was a big operation." Lu Shaohua asked straight to the point.
"Remember, the $500 billion operation." Lin Yi seemed a little excited.
"Yeah." Lu Shaohua nodded, and then said, "Do you know the target?"
"Morgan Consortium." Lin Yi answered without even thinking about it.
"How are the preparations going there?" Lu Shaohua asked again.
"No problem." Lin Yi said again.
This time, Lu Shaohua did not speak, but stood up and patted Lin Yi on the shoulder. The meaning was self-evident. Then Lu Shaohua walked away. Before walking out of the door, Lu Shaohua said lightly: "Get ready for battle."
"Yes." Lin Yi answered with almost all his strength.
There was no way. Lin Yi was too excited. He was so excited that he used all his strength. As for why this happened, the reason was very simple. That was because the opponent was the Morgan Consortium. Oh, no, it was not an opponent. It should be said that the target of the attack was the Morgan Consortium.
That's right, they are the target of attack, not the opponent. In the past, the Morgan Consortium was abused by the Phoenix Group once. At that time, the team was led by Liu Mingzhang and others, and it had nothing to do with Lin Yi.
However, this time it was different, as it was Lin Yi who was in charge.
Although the Morgan Consortium is no longer the same as it used to be and its strength has declined a lot, it cannot be denied that the Morgan Consortium is still strong and is still a banner in the financial field.
It is true that the Morgan Consortium is a banner, but don't forget that the Morgan Consortium is also an enemy of the Hong Kong people. During the financial crisis in 1997, the Morgan Consortium completely stood on the opposite side of the Hong Kong people. It is an enemy, an enemy that helped a group of financial tycoons to rob Hong Kong.
Lin Yi is also a Hong Konger, and was also a member of Hong Kong's defense during the 1997 financial crisis. He could personally experience the intensity of that scene, and it was precisely because of this that he hated the Morgan Consortium even more.
Now Lu Shaohua is going to take action against the Morgan Consortium, and the funds being mobilized are something Lin Yi has never managed before. For a trader or for a true Hong Konger, Lin Yi is undoubtedly excited.
Therefore, when Lin Yi heard Lu Shaohua say to enter the battle preparation state, he used all his strength.
Lu Shaohua naturally didn't know that Lin Yi had such complicated thoughts in his mind, but even if he knew, Lu Shaohua would not care, because there were more important things waiting for Lu Shaohua to do.
After leaving Phoenix Building, Lu Shaohua went directly to the headquarters. When he met Liu Mingzhang and others, he gave orders to Li Yunqing without saying a word.
"Yunqing, hand over the Morgan Consortium shares we hold to Lin Yi." Lu Shaohua's tone was calm, but anyone could hear that there was a strong murderous intent in his tone.
A few years ago, the Morgan Consortium joined forces with many companies to attack the Phoenix Group. In the end, the Phoenix Group survived with its strong financial support and fought back. In that business war, Lu Shaohua emerged as a winner.
However, Lu Shaohua did not forget that the Morgan Consortium was his enemy.
Yes, the Morgan Consortium is jealous of Phoenix Group's industrial property, and they are Lu Shaohua's enemy. The reason is simple: the industrial property is the result of Lu Shaohua's hard work over the past twenty years, and Lu Shaohua regards it as a treasure.
However, the Morgan Consortium tried to snatch Lu Shaohua's treasure and destroy Lu Shaohua's efforts of more than 20 years. This was something Lu Shaohua could not tolerate, so the Morgan Consortium was destined to become Lu Shaohua's enemy.
A person's hard work and industry with high hopes are suddenly targeted by someone. No matter who it is, no one can tolerate it. If they are unable to resist, that is one thing, but the problem is that Lu Shaohua is a powerful existence, so that is another matter.
It has to be said that Liu Mingzhang and others knew Lu Shaohua very well. They knew as early as that year that Lu Shaohua would not calculate that way. The reason why he did not kill the Morgan Consortium at the beginning was entirely because the timing was not ripe. Now that Lu Shaohua wanted to take over and hold shares, it meant that he had to take full action against the Morgan Consortium and give it a fatal blow.
It was precisely because he understood Lu Shaohua's hatred for the Morgan Consortium and his feelings for the Phoenix Group that when Lu Shaohua asked Li Yunqing to transfer his shares, Li Yunqing nodded without even thinking about it and said in a deep voice, "I'll go and transfer it later."
"Yeah." Lu Shaohua nodded.
"Should we take action against the Morgan Consortium?" Liu Mingzhang interrupted as Lu Shaohua had just finished speaking.
Lu Shaohua didn't say anything, but he nodded, which said it all.
"We must drag the Morgan Consortium into a situation where they will never be able to recover." Liu Mingzhang said gritting his teeth.
Liu Mingzhang's appearance was enough to show his hatred for the Morgan Consortium.
"You have to believe in Lin Yi's ability." Lu Shaohua smiled and said.
"That boy has good abilities." Liu Mingzhang also smiled and said.
……
……
Everything had been arranged in Hong Kong, and it was time for Lu Shaohua to proceed to the next step. Early the next morning, Lu Shaohua boarded the special plane and ordered it to take off.
This time Lu Shaohua is going on a long journey, and his destination is the United States.
The Rockefeller Consortium is now the largest consortium in the United States. It started from the oil industry and has expanded to various fields. However, the current Rockefeller Consortium does not intervene in the oil industry, but relies on the financial industry as its pillar industry.
Yes, the Rockefeller Consortium’s oil industry is already half of what it used to be, and it will completely withdraw from the oil field in the near future, handing everything over to the Phoenix Group. This is the agreement between Lu Shaohua and old Rockefeller.
Today, Lu Shaohua went to the United States to discuss with the current head of the Rockefeller Consortium, Rockefeller Jr., about dealing with the Morgan Consortium, and by the way, to discuss taking over the remaining half of the oil industry.
Old Rockefeller passed away several years ago. I still remember that Lu Shaohua called him to express his condolences. Now the person in charge of the Rockefeller Foundation is Rockefeller Jr., who was also present at the agreement back then. Lu Shaohua believes that Rockefeller Jr. will not go back on his word.
Just look at this: when Lu Shaohua's private plane landed in the United States after flying for more than ten hours, Rockefeller Jr. personally came out to greet him, showing their attitude that the Rockefeller Foundation attaches importance to Lu Shaohua.
With this attitude, Lu Shaohua knew that the Rockefeller Foundation would never go back on its word.
In fact, it would not be a problem if the Rockefeller Consortium went back on its word. In Lu Shaohua's opinion, the Rockefeller Consortium was destined not to create any huge waves, and the financial storm was about to come. If the Rockefeller Consortium went back on its word at this time, Lu Shaohua would not mind pulling the Rockefeller Consortium down from the altar.
Well, even if the Rockefeller Consortium does not regret and still cooperates with Lu Shaohua, Lu Shaohua will not let the Rockefeller Consortium have an easy time. The reason is that the Rockefeller Consortium was once a branch of the Red Shield Family - the Rothschild Family.
Even though they seem to have no connection now and are still enemies, for the sake of safety, Lu Shaohua cannot put the Rockefeller Foundation aside. Because if at a critical moment, the Rockefeller Foundation rises up in anger and stands on the side of the Rothschild family, it will ruin Lu Shaohua's plans.
Therefore, no matter what, the Rockefeller Consortium could never be Lu Shaohua's ally. Not only would it not be an ally, but it would also be the next target of Lu Shaohua's calculations. Even if Lu Shaohua could not defeat the Rockefeller Consortium, he could at least cripple it.
Although Lu Shaohua had already made up his mind, when facing Rockefeller Jr., Lu Shaohua still put on the expression that an ally should have. He was very enthusiastic and greeted Rockefeller Jr. with the attitude of an old friend.
Of course, Rockefeller Jr. also treated Lu Shaohua as an old friend, but Lu Shaohua didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. But one thing was certain, that is, he would not regard Lu Shaohua as a real friend.
There are too many intrigues in the business world. Two people may be old friends today, but he may stab you in the back tomorrow. This is a very common thing.
Lu Shaohua is a reborn person, and he has been in the business world for more than 20 years. How could he not know these things? In addition, Lu Shaohua has long had the idea of dealing with Rockefeller in his mind, so he naturally would not let his guard down.
After some polite words at the airport, they got in the car and checked into a hotel owned by the Rockefeller Foundation. They rested for a day and only then did they sit down at their desks to officially start negotiations.
That's right, it was a negotiation, but it was just a formality. Lu Shaohua's identity is different now, and there will be people paying attention to him wherever he goes. The same is true when he came to the United States this time, and there are also people paying attention to him.
And Rockefeller Jr.'s meeting at the airport was bound to be known to others. If there was no ceremony to show off, people would probably speculate that the two families were up to something.
Therefore, everything had been arranged before Lu Shaohua arrived in the United States. He reached an agreement with Rockefeller Jr. and conducted this formal negotiation. As for the two companies joining forces to deal with the Morgan Consortium, they discussed it privately.
